The family's surname was Zeng, and the house they lived in was not big. A six or seven-year-old girl opened the door. Seeing a stranger standing at the door, she asked timidly, "Who are you looking for?"
As soon as the words were finished, another woman hurried over and looked at Gu Yundong suspiciously.
"Hello, Auntie. I am Gu Yundong, who is new to Yongfu Village. The house that is being built next door belongs to my family, and I will be a neighbor in the future. I came here to say hello to Auntie. The construction of the house has disturbed you during this time. The second is I want to ask my aunt for help."
Gu Yundong said with a smile, his attitude was very kind.
Mrs. Dong felt very gentle when she heard her talking, knowing that she was the Gu family next door who wanted to build a brick house, and she would definitely have many contacts in the future, so she hurriedly stepped back and said, "Let's talk about it first."
Gu Yundong entered the door and casually glanced at the courtyard of the Gu family.
It is very clean, the courtyard is not big, and the house feels a bit in disrepair.
Mrs. Dong took her into the main room before asking, "What do you want me to do for you, tell me."
"I want to borrow a pot of ginger tea from my aunt's kitchen." Gu Yundong explained, "The weather is a little cold now, and my uncle outside helped me build a house, and I was sweating all over. When the wind blows when I turn around, I will easily get cold. Drink some ginger. Tea can also warm the stomach. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s convenient for my aunt?¡±
Mrs. Dong was just stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately, "It's convenient, of course it's convenient, and it doesn't take much trouble. You sit down for a while, we have ginger at home, I'll get it for you."
All the gingers are grown by themselves, and there are a lot of them. Mrs. Dong quickly gave her a bunch of them.
Gu Yundong was not too polite, he not only borrowed ginger firewood, but also borrowed barrels and bowls from their family. After it was cooked, he carried it out with Yang Shi, Feng Daneng still wondered where she went, seeing her coming with ginger tea, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
Gu Yundong told him what he meant, "This man's mouth was dry after working for most of the day. I saw someone just scooped up raw water and drank it. If this continues, he will easily get sick. So I borrowed the Zeng's kitchen to cook for a while. The hot pot of ginger tea is comfortable to drink. If you are not used to the taste of ginger tea, there is also boiled water, Uncle Feng, let everyone come over and drink some."
Feng Daneng has never seen anyone who cooks ginger tea for people. At most, he puts it aside and boils it cold, and drinks it by himself. This little girl is really nice. This way, everyone's hearts are warmed up, and they work more vigorously.
After Gu Yundong and Feng Daneng finished talking, they turned back to Zeng's house.
Mrs. Dong was tidying up in the kitchen. When she saw her come in, she smiled and said nothing.
Gu Yundong took out a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into Dong's hands.
Mrs. Dong was taken aback, and hurriedly returned the copper coins, "What are you doing, it's just a few pieces of ginger, I"
"Auntie, the money is not only for today. It will take more than a month for my house to be built, and I can't come here every day. So I want to ask my aunt to cook a pot for me every day, instead of ginger tea every day. The water at the end is also fine, this money is considered as my wages for hiring my aunt, besides, the firewood and water for my aunt¡¯s house have to be picked by someone.¡±
Mrs. Dong was stunned, looked down at the two hundred Wen coins in her hand, thought of the man whose leg was smashed and could only lie on the bed, and the young children at home, gritted his teeth, and took the money back "Thank you, auntie."
"Then I'll trouble you, auntie." Gu Yundong left the Zeng's yard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she went out, she saw that the door of the next door was also opened. She looked at the man who had just stepped out of the door in surprise. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
